The Nine Emperors Uncle always thought that even if he was not taken seriously, he should be noticed and monitored by others. At least the Emperor Brother would not believe him and would not give him the opportunity to contact the outside world. But until he was seven years old,
He just discovered...
He thinks too much!
In the palace, he was simply a dispensable existence. Even if he disappeared, there would not be a single ripple. Children like him were not taken seriously by the emperor at all.
In the eyes of the imperial brother, killing him might be as simple as squeezing an ant to death. Not killing him is not because of deep brotherhood, but just for political needs...
That year, he was seven years old, and he knew nothing except literacy. If he left this palace, he might be like the little beggar written in the book, living on charity from others, but...
He couldn't accept that kind of life, and the nature in his bones made it impossible for him to kneel down and survive.
At that time, he already had the belief that he would die standing up instead of living on his knees!
That year he was seven years old. Many princes and princesses were born in the palace, but before he could remember their names, they died one by one, and only one or two survived.
At that time, he once again saw the darkness and coldness of this palace, and saw the horror of this palace. He longed to grow up, hoping that he could quickly reach the age of fifteen.
At the age of fifteen, he can move out of the palace and open a mansion to live alone.
Although he still lives under the emperor's nose, he at least has some freedom and can take over the people and forces that his father left outside the palace.
He believed in himself that with these forces and connections at hand, even if he could not get into that position, there would be no problem in protecting himself, at least he would not face death every day like now...
He longed to grow up and leave this palace, but he never thought about leaving this place at the age of seven, leaving the palace and waking up in a strange place when he was completely unable to protect himself.
No matter how precocious he is, a child is still a child. Even if he knows longer and knows more than ordinary children, he will still be scared when he suddenly wakes up in a strange place, especially this strange place, which is full of fear for him.
Malicious...
Blood, the bright red blood stains in front of you can make people unable to open their eyes, and the fishy and rotten smell that blows in the face makes people feel sick from the bottom of their hearts...
Vomiting... Vomited everything in his stomach, Uncle Nine Emperors felt that he was alive. He turned over and got out of bed, but stepped on a severed limb. He fell to the ground, his face turned pale, but he did not scream, no
Crying, just staring blankly at the broken legs and arms scattered everywhere on the ground...
To say he wasn't afraid would be a lie. Even though he had killed people before, he had never seen anything like this before. Such directness and bloodshed refreshed his knowledge.
In a place like the palace, killings were always done without blood. So many corpses frightened him.
Swallowing his saliva, Uncle Nine Emperors told himself that he couldn't panic now, let alone cry.
When he was very young, he understood that his crying would not attract other people's attention, let alone their sympathy. Crying was the behavior of a weak person, and he would rather bleed than shed tears.
Uncle Jiuhuang carefully curled up and stepped back, until he leaned against the bed, and he felt a little more at ease.
What on earth is this place?
Why am I here?
Where is the royal brother?
People in the palace?
Have they noticed that I'm missing? Will they come to rescue me?
These thoughts flashed through my mind and were quickly thrown away because I knew very well...
No one will come to save me. Even if I mysteriously disappear from the palace, no one will ask. My life and death are not important, at least to others.
Facing a room full of corpses, I was scared but did not flinch. I suppressed the fear in my heart and stood up against the edge of the bed. Then I discovered...
The "bed" behind me is made of skulls. I can even see the blood on the skulls...
Just a second ago, I was not only sleeping on them, but also leaning on them...
vomit……
I wanted to vomit again, but my stomach was already empty and there was nothing to vomit.
This house scares me, I'm scared from the bottom of my heart. I don't dare to scream, I can't cry, I can only run out. There is only one belief in my mind, that is, to get out of this hellish place...
There was no one outside the house, so I ran out smoothly. I was lucky, but soon I realized that I was too naive. This place is surrounded by the sea. No matter where I ran, I had no way out...
What would happen if a seven-year-old child jumped into the sea?
I don’t know what will happen to others, but I know that once I jump, there is only one way to die, and I...
Don't want to die!
Without any hesitation, I chose to look back...
"This boy will come back as expected." When I came back, I saw four tough men in front of the house. They were gathered around the fire, roasting something...
"This kid is smart enough not to jump down stupidly." Several people talked to each other in loud voices, not caring about my existence at all.
Come to think of it, any one of these four strong men can crush me to death with one hand, so why should they care about me?
I was there far away, neither stepping forward nor retreating. The four didn't care, and kept flipping the roast meat on the fire. My sight was blocked. I didn't know what they were grilling, but I didn't know what they were grilling. I know it smells good...
My stomach was completely empty and I was very hungry. Even though I had a bad life in the palace and my life was always in danger, I had never been hungry. I still had to eat cold dishes and cold meals, but here...
I don’t know how long it has been since I left the palace, but I guess it’s not a short time. After all, the knowledge I saw in my hands tells me that there is no place near the capital surrounded by the sea.
I am very hungry, very hungry, especially the fragrance wafting in the air, which makes me want to eat even more, but I know that I can't go forward and sell myself for a little food.
I stood there and looked at them quietly. Rather than confronting them, it was better to say that I was fighting with myself.
The four big men had been paying attention to me. When they saw that I was motionless, they started chatting again: 'That boy is quite capable. He can bear it. He hasn't eaten for several days.'
"This kid has an unusual identity. He must be different from the kid you met before. Powerful kids always have some strange backbone."
"What is rich and powerful? He is the prince's grandson, which is much better than being rich and powerful."
Hearing this, I was completely stunned. Do these people know my identity?
Then why did they arrest me?
Threaten the royal brother?
Don't be kidding, the emperor will never admit it, let alone compromise for my life. If I were the emperor, if I received such a threat, I would directly tell the gangster: Ninth brother has been in the palace, I don't know you Where did you catch a kid, pretending to be the prince and grandson? If you don't surrender, just wait to destroy the nine tribes!
Look, how easy it is to deny his identity with just one sentence. Anyway, there are not many people in the world who can see him except the people in the palace.
Just arrange a child in the palace who is the age of the late emperor's nine sons, and then let "him" die unexpectedly in two years.
When I was kidnapped from the palace, I would not naively hope that the emperor would send someone to rescue me, let alone think about whether the people my father left for me could bring me out.
I don't know where the people my father left for me are, and they may not be able to receive the news of my disappearance.
I stood quietly on the spot, thinking about my situation and looking for countermeasures to prevent myself from being affected by the smell of food. However, the words of the four big men still reached my ears.
"This guy has thin skin and tender meat. He is skinny, but he is still quite meaty. I wonder how it tastes?" A big man took a bite of the barbecue on his hand. It was oily and looked very fragrant...
But, the shape of the meat has some characteristics, he seems to have seen it before?
"Zhisan, don't think too much. I already told you that the child is a prince and cannot be eaten."
eat?
My eyes widened instantly. I knew, I knew what kind of meat that big man was eating. It was...
Human arm.
I just saw it in the house. What the big man was eating was human flesh...
"The two-legged mutton this time is really bad. I don't know what those people are doing. Every time the ones left behind are thin and small, can't they be fattened up?"
Corpse Three's words attracted the echo of several other people: "I've eaten so much that my teeth are raw. I eat such low-quality meat every day, and there is no oil or water at all. How can I have the strength to work?"
"That kid doesn't look like he's gone. He still has a few taels of meat on him, and he hasn't been poisoned. Why don't we catch him and roast him and eat him?" For some reason, this group of people looked at me again while talking, and
The way they looked at me...
It's like looking at a pig!
A pig ready to be roasted on the fire.
I forgot what I was feeling at that time. Anyway, it was not fear because...
At that time, I had decided that rather than being roasted and eaten, I would rather jump into the sea and take a gamble.
It is better to be buried in the belly of a fish than to be used as food. At that time, I already understood what it means to choose the lesser of two evils!
Fortunately, the other party seemed to be very afraid of my identity. They only dared to talk but did not dare to take action. They said a few harsh words, and then...
One of the people warned: "This man is a person who has been told by the higher ups to take special care of. We don't care whether he survives or not, but we cannot eat him."
At the reminder of one of them, he dropped a piece of roasted human meat for me. At the reminder of one of them, he dropped a piece of roasted human meat for me.
At the reminder of one of them, he threw a piece of roasted human meat to me and left without looking back. He was not worried that I would run away or that they would eat me and I would not be able to run away...
Looking at the golden roasted human flesh in front of me, I found that not only was I not afraid, but I was actually smiling...
Hahaha……
It turns out that in the eyes of others, I am just a meal.
Human life is so cheap.
At this moment, I seem to understand what it means: the heaven and the earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs; the saints are unkind and regard the common people as stupid dogs.
At the same time, I was glad that my background was not bad, so these people did not dare to attack me and roasted me and ate me...
